Triceps Dips

Type:Arms

Even though they are commonly known as tricep dips, it is in fact the shoulders that are worked the most in this exercise. Keeping the body as upright as possible will target the shoulders and triceps. Leaning further forward will transfer the focus off the shoulders and on to the chest.

Equipment :Yes

Top Tip:

For this particular exercise keeping upright targets the shoulders rather than the chest.
The more you lean forward into the dip, the more you work the chest.
